Shop Our Home Lighting Store's Outdoor Post Lights Collection

Combining timeless design with modern functionality, this selection includes everything from classic outdoor post lights to sophisticated pilaster and street post lanterns. Designed to enhance the safety and beauty of your outdoor spaces, these fixtures add a welcoming glow and decorative charm to any exterior setting. Crafted with durability in mind, our outdoor post lights withstand the elements, ensuring your outdoor areas remain illuminated and inviting year-round.

The latest home lighting trends in outdoor post lighting lean towards a blend of classic and contemporary designs, with an emphasis on energy efficiency and durability. LED lighting is increasingly preferred for its long life and energy savings, featured in styles ranging from traditional lanterns to modern minimalist posts. Materials such as weather-resistant aluminum, brass, and wrought iron are popular for their longevity and ability to complement various architectural styles. Smart technology integration, including motion sensors and remote-controlled dimming, offers enhanced functionality and convenience, reflecting a desire for outdoor lighting that is both beautiful and adaptable to modern living.

Landscape architects and designers are focusing on the strategic placement of outdoor post lights to create visually appealing and functional outdoor spaces. By lining driveways, garden paths, or property perimeters with post lights, they not only improve navigability and safety but also add a layer of security. The choice of lantern style can significantly impact the ambiance of an outdoor area, with designers often selecting fixtures that echo the home's architectural details or garden theme. Incorporating varying heights and designs of post lights can add depth and interest to the landscape, while ensuring consistent illumination across larger properties. The integration of these lights into a comprehensive outdoor lighting plan enhances the property's curb appeal and usability after dark.

What is the standard height of a post light?

The standard height of a post light typically ranges between 5.5 to 6.5 feet (approximately 66 to 78 inches) from the ground. This height ensures that the light provides adequate illumination for pathways, driveways, and garden areas without causing glare for pedestrians or being obscured by landscaping. It's designed to cast light downward and outward, effectively lighting the area around it while contributing to the overall safety and aesthetic appeal of the outdoor space. However, the specific height may vary depending on the design of the post light, the layout of the area it's intended to illuminate, and personal preference. In larger open spaces or areas where broader illumination is needed, taller post lights may be used to extend the reach of the light. Adjusting the height to suit the specific needs of the space can optimize visibility and enhance the ambiance of your outdoor environment.

How many lumens do I need for an outdoor lamp post?

The number of lumens required for an outdoor lamp post depends on the area you intend to illuminate and the purpose of the lighting. For general ambient lighting in residential areas, such as driveways, pathways, or garden areas, an outdoor lamp post should ideally have a lumen output ranging from 100 to 200 lumens. This range provides sufficient brightness for visibility and safety without being overly harsh or intrusive. For commercial spaces or larger areas that require more extensive illumination for security purposes, a higher lumen output, approximately 300 to 500 lumens, may be necessary to adequately light the space. It's important to consider the specific needs of the area being lit, as well as the desired ambiance, to determine the optimal lumen output for your outdoor lamp post, ensuring it effectively balances functional lighting with creating a welcoming outdoor environment.
